1 Audi - Brand & Product Audi Tradition


The "Audi Tradition" team, in conjunction with traditional companies Auto Union GmbH and NSU GmbH, maintains and presents the extensive and wide-branching history of Audi. We put the exciting history of the six Audi predecessor brands into context with today's brand. By highlighting the fascination of our classic and vintage cars we help to emotionalise the Audi brand and strengthen customer relations. We participate in many classic and vintage car rallies and historic races, in addition to organising shows and issuing publications, and we also have technical responsibility for the new Audi museum ("museum mobile") in Ingolstadt
